A relatively easy summit to climb. Basically all terrain is walking and even easy for families. There is just one small scrambling section just below the summit, but even this is easy to do with a little caution. The path to the summit is accordingly busy. There were many families on our way up.

Very beautiful and little committed (opposite the neighboring Niederhorn) summit.
